Inflammation of the voice box

laryngitis

pharyngitis
C
bronchitis
D
sinusitis
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Laryngitis is an inflammation of your voice box (larynx) from overuse, irritation or infection. Inside the larynx are your vocal cords-two folds of mucous membrane covering muscle and cartilage. Normally, your vocal cords open and close smoothly, forming sounds through their movement and vibration.

Detailed explanation-2: -Laryngitis is most often caused by a viral infection, so resting and drinking plenty of fluids will help you heal as quickly as possible. Warm liquids like tea, broth, or soup may help soothe your irritated throat, keep your airways moisturized, and thin out mucus.

Detailed explanation-3: -Laryngitis in adults is not serious, but you should see a doctor if you’ve been hoarse for more than 2 weeks, are coughing up blood, have a temperature above 103 F, or are having trouble breathing.
